"Oh, this is the greatest show. We light it up, we won't come down. And the sun can't stop us now. Watching it come true, it's taking over you. Oh, this is the greatest show!" I scream-sang into my deodorant while packing for school.

"Stop screaming," My brother said, popping his head out the door of the bathroom we share.

"It's everything you ever want. It's everything you ever need. And it's here right in front of you. This is where you wanna be. It's everything you ever want. It's everything you ever need. And it's here right in front of you. This is where you wanna be. This is where you wanna be!" I scream-sang again totally ignoring my brother. He had just moved back in and I was used to scream-singing my heart out. This time he was with us permanently. Uncle Sev's mom was sick, so Mikeal, my brother, moved out.

"LYRA!" His face turned red with anger.

"What?" I asked, pausing the music.

I love him. But, I love to annoy him more.

"You ready for school?" I asked him. He was supposed to be packing for school too. He went to Durmstrang. I went to Beauxbatons. We also have another brother who doesn't live with us. When our parents died, Harry went to our Aunt and Uncle's house to live with them.

"Lyra, did your supply list say to bring Muggle clothes too?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm just grabbing my overalls and undershirts to bring."

"DINNER!" Uncle Remy yelled up to us. He's not our real uncle but he's the closest we have to one. Uncle Sev isn't our real Uncle either. We have a bunch of fake uncles. Uncle Sev, Uncle Remy, Uncle Sirie, Uncle Dumbleydore. Our parents favorite friends and teachers

We both ran down the stairs and plopped down in the chairs.

"Dinner is served," He told us, setting his famous chicken cream soup down on the table, "So, are you ready for school? It's going to be the biggest year of your life!"

"Yes! I CANNOT wait! I get to go to school in Hogwarts! The best school EVER!" I told him, super excited.

"I'm excited too!" Mikeal said.

"Well, remember you cannot, and I mean it Lyra, enter for the Tournament. You are not old enough and it just won't allow it." Uncle Remy firmly told both of us. We all knew it was more for me though, "Don't forget that we are leaving tomorrow at 7:00."

"It's MORNING! Oh yes what a LOVELY morning! GOOD Morning! GOOD Morning!" I scream-sang as I woke up the next day.

"LYRA! WHYYY!" Mikeal yelled.

"Be Quiet!" I yelled at him.

I heard him slap his hand to his head. I quite love to annoy him. It's kinda a sibling thing. I hopped out of bed and raced into the bathroom. It was always a competition to see who get there first. She turned on the shower and heard a groan from the other room.

"Ha ha!" I joked, not meaning any harm. I quickly got around, dressing in my favorite light blue overall shorts and periwinkle striped shirt. I put my hair up into a tall ponytail with my lucky deep blue scrunchie in and gem twists everywhere. A scrunchie and gem twists were my signature style.

I grabbed my wand and my trunk and jumped down the stairs almost crashing into Uncle Remy, who was standing at the bottom of the steps.

"Sorry!" I yelped.

"It's okay. Now get your stuff into the car and we can be off!" He told me.

"Aren't you forgetting someone?" I asked him.

"Yes. MIKEAL!" He yelled.

"COMING!" That was the first time I've heard Mikeal yell about something that wasn't me in a while.
